suicideTALK

suicideTALK is a short program exploring issues and attitudes in suicide prevention. The program is designed to educate and enable participants to create a suicide-safer workplace and community.

As a first step toward greater personal involvement, the program invites participants to explore attitudes, beliefs about suicide. It encourages recognition that anxiety and fear may be a barrier to people actively responding to suicide situations, rather than a lack of knowledge or skills.
